Has anyone seen a deck dock for charging the Galaxy Nexus? I don't need any bells and whistles, just a dock for charging while at my desk at work.
 
Nice, yeah I already have the Samsung? (OEM) 1750 mAh Standard Battery with Spare Battery Charger For Verizon Samsung GALAXY Nexus SCH-I515,Verizon Google GALAXY Nexus SCH-I515
 
Anyone know of a micro usb one that can charge with a case on?

Or a case that has the 3 pins exposed (works on a charger) or has some contacts to allow the phone to charge with a case on?
 
this is pretty frustrating as i was going to use my 50 dollar livingsocial coupon to buy a dock
 
I found this one on Amazon, looks interesting. Designed for Galaxy S2 but seems to be pretty universal with micro-USB port on bottom allowing various phones with or without case to be mounted. It would allow the Nexus to sit in portrait mode as well. Thoughts?

I also found this video review:

The extra battery from VZW comes with a plastic charging tray and includes a usb splitter for charging the phone and the spare battery at the same time. What is cool about the plastic tray is that it has a groove built into it that is designed to hold the Nexus in landscape. I now use the tray on my nightstand to hold my Nexus as an alarm clock. The stock alarm clock also auto rotates to landscape. The only thing I don't like is that the groove in the tray does not make use of the 3 pin charger so you have to use your usb cable.

That's exactly why I want the dock with the 3 prongs/pins. I just want to drop/pick up my phone and not have to worry about scratching it up at night to plug it in. I have the spare battery/charger, but I'm getting the dock when it's available.

I really want the car dock and desk top charger that use the charging contacts. I am on call and am in and out of the car a lot. I really want the convenience of just dropping the phone into the charger/holder. It would be even better if the phone would go into clock or car mode automatically. I just don't understand why this isn't possible yet.
